Elon Musk was recently interviewed at an MIT Symposium. An audience asked his views on artificial intelligence (AI). Musk turned very serious, and urged extreme caution and national or international regulation to avoid "doing something stupid" he said.
"With artificial intelligence we are summoning the demon", said Musk. "In all those stories where there's the guy with the pentagram and the holy water, it's like, 'Yeah, he's sure he can control the demon.' Doesn't work out."

Musk had a nightmare.
The anchorman flipped his page and went on: "Some developments for linux systems: from release 666 onward, systemd will integrate an AI subsystem to finally parse broken log binary files and help with the NSA-mandated collection of keystroke and mouse data..."
He woke up screaming "WE ARE SUMMONING THE DAEMON!!!"
[take that, systemd rookie troll]
